Kelmscott #807 Free
At 23.9 km and 39 minutes, this is the longest route from Kelmscott Service Centre. A two-stage route that covers five suburbs: Kelmscott, Armadale, Bedfordale, Mount Nasura, and Camillo. Unlike the other Kelmscott routes that stay in residential areas, this one heads south on Albany Highway into the hills of Bedfordale, hitting 80 km/h. The route has 8 roundabouts, fewer than most Kelmscott routes, but 5 traffic signals, the most of any route here.
Watch Out For
- Albany Highway (70-80 km/h). A long stretch of highway driving through Bedfordale. You must reach near the speed limit. Driving 60 in an 80 zone will be marked down.
- Carradine Road hills. Winding road through Bedfordale hills with elevation changes. Maintain lane position on curves and watch speed on downhill sections.
- School zone near Armadale Road. 40 km/h during 7:30-9:00am and 2:30-4:00pm in WA. Check the time before your test.
- Brookton Highway junction. Busy intersection with traffic signals. Watch for the speed change from highway back to residential.
- Canns Road turn. Easy to miss the turn in the Bedfordale hills section. Watch for the road name early.

- 11 left turns, 12 right turns, 8 roundabouts

Key Tips
- This is the only Kelmscott route with 80 km/h driving. Accelerate smoothly to the limit on Albany Highway and do not sit at 70.
- The Bedfordale section has tight curves. Slow to an appropriate speed before the bend, not during.
- With 5 traffic signals, practice your approach to lights. If amber, check your stopping distance before deciding.
